Cursor Project - Flask_Command_Center

Hello, I wanted to take a moment to go over my favorite new project - Flask_Command_Center! I got a Cursor subscription maybe a month or two ago and realized that it was really good at making HTML pages, simple Python scripts that retrieve data from JSON files, and various other tasks that would realistically take me hours to complete. I'm not implementing ground breaking new algorithms by any means. I don't think I would put any of these into production or try to say they are ready for market. But, I can use them daily which is helping be more productive. One of my favorite uses for this Python Flask app is remaking anything I don't want to pay for. I couldn't find any free RSS readers I liked, recreating one was remarkably easy.

This is what it looks like

I know that it is missing some functions that the cool enterprise-grade RSS readers implement. But realistically I'm not smart enough to use those any ways. The simplicity and all in one place nature of this has helped me read multiple articles every day. There is a solid chance I don't keep the habit up, but I believe I've lowered my barrier to entry. If you find that you don't need to simplify your workflows and lower the barrier to entry on everything, you probably don't have ADHD (or you're at least dealing with it better).

I also made an E-reader with metrics and I've found that I've only missed one day of reading since.

Making my own apps for my own workflow has shown to be valuable and I think I will continue to use Cursor to help me save time.

Thanks for reading, See you soon! -Brian
